Extract:
The NIH has granted a total of $1,367,504 to 23andMe, a personal genetic testing company, for a 2-year project to enhance the company’s online database and research engine. The project will make access to aggregate, summary data available to outside researchers.
“23andMe is building a platform to connect researchers and consumers that will enable discoveries to happen faster,” Anne Wojcicki, co-founder and CEO of 23andMe, said in a press release. “This grant from the NIH recognizes the ability of 23andMe to create a unique, web-based platform that engages consumers and enables researchers from around the world to make genetic discoveries.”
